revolations unfolding in middle east?

locked up typically means "sealed" through the various strata of the earth's crust. There are a variety of types of strata, some like clay are almost impossible to penetrate unless with a drill. others, that are light and porous, easily let fluids flow through it. I am not a geologist, but at a very general level, this is fairly accurate.

ok well in the Oil & Gas industry "Locked up" basically means to aquire. Hydrocarbons form in the upper mantle and are transported through deep faults to shallower depths in the Earth's crust. So the Oil is never "locked up"

For example if you look at the processing/seismic data on the Kuwait/Iraq border is will look like niagra falls under ground, the oil is basically pooring into Kuwaits territory.

Im not trying to piss you guys off, just educate you.
